About Daxton

Meet Daxton! This handsome one-year-old German Shepherd weighs in at seventy pounds and is ready to impress with his intelligence and charm. Daxton was found as a stray in rural Louisiana, but he navigated the situation with impressive composure and resourcefulness. He's a dog who observes and assesses, not in an aloof way, but with discerning intelligence. Once he decides you're worth his attention, he transforms into a playful, engaged, and wonderfully mischievous companion. He's the kind of dog who seems to solve problems with a calculated, yet delightful, approach. Daxton is currently working with a professional trainer, quickly picking up new skills and showing his eagerness to collaborate with his people.

Ideal Home

Daxton will thrive with a confident adopter who understands the German Shepherd breed and is excited to continue building on his training and bond. He enjoys the company of other dogs, interacting with them in a calm and socially aware manner.

Ongoing Health

Daxton has flawless health paperwork. He is neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. He is up-to-date on heartworm and flea prevention.

Training & Support

Daxton is learning valuable lessons in sharing and trusting that good things will continue to come his way. With consistent guidance, he is making excellent progress and demonstrating his capability.
